Simple economics NonZ.....(Something you're often going on about)
Subscription is similar to renting rather than owning. Most economists will tell you
"IF" you can OWN don't rent. Why? Because with renting you are throwing your
money away while with owning you actually have something. Your money is not
tossed out the window. I spend $15.00 on iTunes I have 15 songs and some change.
I spend $15.00 for a month os subscripttion at the end of that month I own nothing
and have a bill to look forward to. My $15.00 did not much at all for me. AND IT"S
ALL ABOUT ME!!!
